msnbc.com says there is a suppoused audio clip of him missing the final jeopardy answer on the net.

Yeah it's tonight. The clip was up at http://www.kottke.org but got taken down. He's got a transcript up there though. Man, Jennings fucked up.

Edit: Shit! Even the transcript got deleted.

 

[teiresias]

Damn, all the infos gone from the site and I probably won't be home to see this tonight, ugh!!!

 

[boredJonathan]

I thought we knew he had lost for a long time now?

Is the delay that long from when they tape to when they air?

 

[carpal]

Yeah everyone knew he lost, but I'm pretty sure the question he blew it on was kept more or less under wraps. There was a thread about it a while ago. Pretty anticlimactic.

The rumor at the time was that the question is something about

a company that has a large number seasonal employees in the first half of the year

or something like that. I don't remember the exact wording.

 

[MIMIC]

He doesn't lose tonight.

OWN3D!

The Question "Most of this firm's 70,000 seasonal white-collar employees work only four months a year." Jenning's answer was "Fed Ex." The correct answer is rather obvious.

The correct answer is:

H&R Block

Looks like they delayed broadcast of the episode to the last day of November Sweeps month by sticking in a couple weeks of college Jeopardy. It's all about teh ratings!
